Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Discover, or re-discover, The River Café along the banks of the Rio Cuale in the heart of Puerto Vallarta from May 15th-31st.

Delicate Mahi Mahi encrusted with pecans served over a rich coconut sauce with vegetables, Filet Mignon with mushrooms, the rich Chicken Breast Portobello, a side vermicelli and all topped with sliced mushrooms and basil in a Reggiano Cream sauce or the towering Lamb Lasagna with mushrooms, goat cheese and a fresh tomato basil sauce.

Your dining experience can begin with soup, salad or risotto. The sweet ending consists of Créme Brulée or the decadent Chocolate Lava Cake.
